Auto Insurance


Total Votes: 8 / Interest: 425

Car insurance is designed to protect you and everyone who shares the road from the potentially high cost of accident-related and other damages or injuries. It is a contract in which you pay a certain amount — or “premium” — to your insurance company in exchange for a set of coverages you select.

A basic car insurance policy is required for drivers in Illinois.  If you finance or lease your vehicle, your lender may also require specific car insurance coverages and limits.  Beyond legal requirements, carrying car insurance is a smart decision. If you cause an accident or get into one with an uninsured or underinsured driver, you may be held responsible to cover related expenses, such as car repairs, property damage, medical bills, lost wages, legal fees and more. Without the proper coverage, your financial well-being may be at risk.
